Python on our servers runs as an CGI executable. To use Python on our servers, do one of the following: Add #!/usr/bin/python to the very first line of the script, and save the file with the extension '.py'. Then create a .htaccess file (or edit your existing one) and add the following line: AddHandler cgi-script .py Add #!/usr/bin/python to the very first line of the script, and save the file with the extension '.cgi'.

Multiple handlers in a single directory If you encountered a situation when you need to have several mod_python handlers in the same directory, this is the way to do it... Suppose you want all .py files to be handled with mod_python.publisher, all .spy files with spyce and all .pysp files with mod_python.psp. lt;Directory /home/www/> AddHandler mod_python .py .spy .pysp PythonHandler mod_python.publisher | .py PythonHandler spyce.run_spyceModpy::spyceMain | .spy PythonHandler mod_python.

On Windows 2000, the standard Python installer already associates the .py extension with a file type (Python.File) and gives that file type an open command that runs the interpreter (D:\Program Files\Python\python.exe "%1" %*). This is enough to make scripts executable from the command prompt as 'foo.py'. If you'd rather be able to execute the script by simple typing 'foo' with no extension you need to add .py to the PATHEXT environment variable. See similar questions...

DenyHosts requires Python v2.3 or later. If you are using an earlier version of Python then you should install a newer version of Python on your system. Multiple versions of Python can safely co-exist on your server so you do not need to worry about breaking any dependencies. You should obtain the latest version of Python and install it on your system. Depending on the method of download, your latest Python executable is typically installed in /usr/local/bin or /usr/bin.

Absolytely, this is what hosting account needs for. The web server supports PHP, CGI, Perl, gcc compiler. If you need to run C++ or others that require custom installation plese contact our support team. See similar questions...

This is not necessarily a straightforward question. If you are already familiar with running programs from the Windows command line then everything will seem obvious; otherwise, you might need a little more guidance. There are also differences between Windows 95, 98, NT, ME, 2000 and XP which can add to the confusion. See similar questions...

The Python standard library contains a number of very useful modules. For example the regular expression module re, the threading module, and the random module. To use these modules you must install Jython. See similar questions...

No, sorry. Our server uses the Red Hat Linux™ operating system, and ASP scripts are native to the Microsoft Windows™ operating system. Although it is possible to run ASP scripts on a Linux system, we suggest that ASP scripts be run where they truly belong. PHP is the open source alternative to ASP that runs on multiple operating systems, including Linux and Windows. And in our personal opinion, PHP code runs faster and are more reliable than ASP.

If your script is written in Perl then the first line of the script must be: #!/usr/bin/perl You must save the file in UNIX format. If the file is saved in DOS format then there will be an extra (Control M or ^M) at the end of the line. Macintosh format text files appear as single line to UNIX. These will cause a 500: Server error message. See similar questions...

Our servers have the capability to run CGI scripts based on Perl, Unix SH, KSH, CSH, and C/C++ languages. If you have a custom CGI script that you need to use, simply upload it to your personal "cgi-local" Here are some helpful tips to follow when installing Perl scripts: If a script calls another file within your account, but the script does NOT require a URL, you need to use the system path: Substitute the path to the file with your domain name.

No. Only the GEX server can run scripts. The GEX standalone is designed for users that want local use of the solution and want a standard turn-key solution with no custom files to support: this is exactly what the GEX assistants provide. To run scripts, you need to run the GEX server version. See similar questions...

No, you cannot. For security reasons, we DO NOT allow our dialup subscribers to run their own CGI/PERL scripts. This is our security policy to protect our SingNet customers. However, SingNet has provided a customizable cgi script (mailback.pl) for user to run on their web pages. Please note that this script is provided to users as a form of value-add service, and hence, SingNet will not be held responsible of helping the customers to debug any problems.

We don't recommend or support it and we have not tested it. As these scripts run for extended periods of time it is likely that they will timeout if run through a web browser. They should be run from the shell See similar questions...

Perl scripts can be run from anywhere on your domain inside the Windows 2003 /wwwroot directory. They do not have to reside inside the cgi-bin directory. If we were a Unix hosting company (which we aren't) we would have to set permissions, but running Windows 2003 servers with our configuration, it doesn't make a difference where you put them.

We used to offer PHP and CGI on free accounts. Unfortunately, this had to be disabled due to repeated abuse from some users. If you require the ability to run scripts we would advise you to upgrade to premium. See similar questions...
